Schwenksville Bank Teaming with Perkiomenville SPCA for Holiday Collection

Ambler Savings Bank, at 395 Main Street in Schwenksville, is collecting items for pets at the Perkiomenville SPCA during the holiday season.

A box has been placed in the bank's lobby to collect wet and dry food, as well as treats for dogs and cats who will be in the shelter over the holiday.  Items will be collected through Dec. 20.

“My pets are my four-legged, furry family,” said Bonnie Eckenrode, branch manager of Ambler Savings Bank in Schwenksville. “We wanted to reach out and help our community this holiday season and we are all very fond of animals here at the branch. What better way to do both than by collecting food and treats for the SPCA and the animals still looking for their ‘forever homes.’”

The Perkiomenville SPCA, a branch of the Montgomery County SPCA, was founded in the 1950s and can house between 80 and 120 cats and dogs, as well as between 10 and 20 horses and other livestock on their farm, according to the Montgomery County SPCA website (www.montgomerycountyspca.org). The shelter takes in lost and surrendered animals, and adopts them out to loving homes.

Ambler Savings Bank, located at 395 Main Street in Schwenksville, and headquartered in Ambler, has additional locations in Limerick and Fairview Village. Learn more online at www.amblersavingsbank.com.
